-He's had an easy transition to broadcasting and he's enjoying it.
-The AL East is going to be a three team race between BOS, NYY and TB, while the O's are going in the right direction. He talks about the difficulty for young pitchers to come up in the AL East.
-He says that a rebuild such as the Jays and Orioles are going through takes at least 5-7 years. He says Tampa's method has worked but you have to be willing to wait.
-He watched the Jays today, "My heart goes out to Alex.... I wanted them to get off to a good start." Says he likes watching Marcum pitch and wanted to see him get the W.

That's about it. If you want to hear it it'll be up on the fan's site at some point.

You hear his Northeastern twang a lot more now. Maybe its because hes not in Toronto anymore? He says that if he was an owner and he had to compete, he would do the Tampa Bay thing and then put up the money to compete when they are good.
